Is there a treasure rare and ever faithful
That stays the long and winding course
Through pleasant days without a care
And jagged trials of dark intent

Is it possible to find such wealth
Scattered randomly among the chaff
Hidden deftly yet in plain sight
Waiting patiently for the one true soul

That kindred spirit most harmonious
With pulse that mimics  perfectly
The beat that wanders aimlessly
Starved for the melody to set it free

This endless void that sears the heart
That tears the fiber of true faith
May be a hollow echo in the wind
A cruel prevarication that dulls the mind

Yet unrequited passion drives it on
Ever forward into that merciless breach
The breach that all must cross who seek
That perfect match for life’s embrace

the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost
